In the late afternoon, while preparing to cook dinner, the sun always comes rushing through my kitchen window and brings a different picture everyday, here are a few roses from the garden and oranges I get straight from the farms in Salinas,CA.

Penny is one of my dearest, dearest friends and she gave me these poppies when I saw her a few days ago. They were still completely closed and we have had so much fun watching them pop open! I couldn't wait to capture these lovely beauties on canvas!

This painting is as warm, peaceful and lively at the same time, just like my sister Tania herself. It speaks of everything she is, welcoming, calming, interesting and most of all beautiful! This is her sitting room, drenched by the late winter sun, just like she lightens everybody's lives around her!

My mom has a cup of tea every morning, from the finest China. She is a wise woman and it is only fitting that the cup should be right on top of a stack of books. I have always loved this chair as I have my mom!

So, I'm visiting between my sisters..I am one of 7 kids... and this is what my Sister Tania's beautiful window looks like! I collected a few antique glass bottles,lemons from here tree and finished it off with lovely, fluffy peonies!

FRANSE EETKAMER is a painting of a French dining room, in lovely muted colours yet striking light coming through the beautiful French window. I love the inviting arrangement of the chairs that beg your eye to stay a little longer!
